Accurate Timer 1/1000 second

[Pete]

I've been messing around with the timer class, datetime.ticks, etc and
haven't been able to come up with a real accurate time measurement, say for
a simple stopwatch application. Can anyone point me in the right direction
as to how to create an accurate time measurement object in c#?

Thanks,

You can use GetTickCount() before you start whatever you're timing and after
it. The difference is the time in ms. It should be easy to P/Invoke
this...

Use Environment.TickCount and you won't need to use P/Invoke (though I
would guess under the sheets it's the exact same thing)

Thanks, Matt, I'll store that in *my* knowledge base, too.

You can access a millisecond count with

Val=Environnment.TickCount
